I am sat here in Caithness trying to fill the day before I go into hospital for a colonoscopy. That is on Thursday but tomorrow I go in to be cleaned out, what a lovely day that is going to be. I am not bothered about the actual scope. I have had too many of those, I know they are not painful, just worried about what they may find.
I am having it because about a month a go I went into hospital one Sunday evening with severe pains in my bowel. They then found I had pneumonia but that is a side issue. I was transferred to Inverness where I was going to be operated on for the bowel pain, even with pneumonia. The CT Scan had found something hanging off my bowel, but the pain died down and so decided to leave it. A few days after coming out of hospital I was feeling worse and so I had another CT Scan. They thought they discovered a polyp in my lung and on re-examining my other scan they thought I they found one in my bowel. That could of been from my previous operations for Hirschsprung's. To find out what that is read www.hirschsprungs.info and to find out about my life with it http://www.mc-gregor.org.uk/history.html . The Hirschsprung's website is for the group that I run. It is for parents, adults & teenagers and we have around 900 members worldwide.
